[v2,0/3] SOF: Fix HDMI probe errors on GLK devices

Hi Mark and Pierre,
here's a patch series to address an issue that popped up
after SOF changed from hdac-hdmi to snd-hda-codec-hdmi:

"failed to get afg sub nodes on ChromeOS devices"
https://github.com/thesofproject/linux/issues/1642

v2 changes:
 - rebased on top of broonie/for-next
 - added Takashi's reviewed-by to the one HDA patch, agreed
   the series should go via asoc tree

This is fairly hard to hit and only occurs on some devices (most
current reports are Gemini Lake based Chromebooks), but when
it does, it is rather severe as the whole SOF probe fails
because of this, and user is left without sound.

First fix is to optimize out one power down/up cycle from
the probe process. On platforms such as GLK, each time
audio driver does acomp's get_power(), graphics typically
needs to do a modeset due to clocking requirements for the HDA
bus. This can cause display to flash when audio is probed, plus
in the reported cases on GLK, can lead to probe failures.

The above change doesn't cover all reported cases, so additionally
retry logic is added to snd_hda_get_sub_nodes() calls on
Intel platforms. Multiple other approaches were investigated,
but a simple retry -- although less than ideal -- in the end proved to
be most reliable solution. HDA dump on one affected Acer Chromebook
looks like this:
